The suspect then used the victim’s credit card to purchase $18,000 in jewelry at a nearby mall. He attempted a second transaction at a clothing store valued at $11,000, but the purchase was declined.

The Irvine Police Department believes that he was driving a black Infinity QX60.

The suspect is a burly man with facial hair who was wearing a green vest, white t-shirt, khaki pants and a green baseball cap.
